About Nakshatra

A Nakshatra is one of 27 equal 13°20′ segments of the ecliptic; yours is the one the Moon occupied at birth. It is computed from the Moon’s sidereal longitude (Lahiri ayanamsa). Because the Moon moves ~13°/day, without a birth time the result can shift near a boundary.

※ Japan’s “Sukuyō” uses a lunar-calendar (almanac) method, so its result can differ from this astronomical Nakshatra (a related but distinct system). Rulers, symbols and deities are traditional Vedic associations; this is divination, not science. About our data
